An historically amazing college, currently under new management. Pardon the dust. We're working on it. Sort of. #newcollegeoffl It's not just an education, it's a de-evolution.

Why does this seem so hard for people to understand? Once you give us your money, it becomes *our* money. And we'll do whatever we want with it, including paying Richard Corcoran's astronomical salary. And sports stuff. Cope! suncoastsearchlight.org/new-college-...

Yes, we had bigoted hypocrite Alan Dershowitz as commencement speaker as a political move. Yes, he spouted off some pretty heinous stuff. Yes, we're glad that old-school types of New College students are finally becoming extinct. Yes..wait, where were we going? oldschoolcatalyst.com/new-college-...

We're offended at the implication Richard Corcoran lies. * Paying* 70 baseball players (for a 600-700 student school) to attend still resulted in higher enrollment numbers, didn't it? * We'll not be taking further questions

We're just happy the national news is still paying attention to us!

Dear Faculty, Our sportsball kids were going to live in mold. We realized that might be bad or get us sued, so they're going somewhere else. Don't make them do homework and stuff. Signed, Guy With Zero Experience in Higher Education Who is Somehow a Provost

We won! OK, we settled. For $125,000. Of your taxpayer money. We thought Chris Rufo might pay some of it, but he didn't want to, and we don't have any influence over him. mailchi.mp/flcga/florid...

We're in lots of news these days! As they say, any press is good press, right? We look forward to having to justify Chris Rufo's actions. And that yacht lawyer Bob Allen's actions. And the actions of all other people. We're sure Ron DeSantis is thrilled. www.floridabulldog.org/2025/05/new-...

We didn't really want to do this anyway, so this doesn't count as a loss. floridapolitics.com/archives/736...

Chris Rufo may have no chin, and a voice that grates on your nerves just short of the Ben Shapiro nasaly condescension type, but we're proud he's on our Board! He's bringing great changes to the world of higher education, even if he doesn't really know anything about it.

"Can it be stopped?" Nope. Why would you even want to stop our growth? If our footprints doubles in size, we could pay Richard Corcoran TWO million dollars in salary! www.wfla.com/news/local-n...

It's cute you think we *missed* the charges, or even that we *looked for them*. Fred Piccolo Jr's dad, Rick Piccolom is a big SRQ official. We wanted that land. We gave his son a job. Bonus: Jr used to work with Richard Corcoran. Case closed. www.wusf.org/education/20...

As the world honors Val Kilmer this past wek, we're reminded of a Tombstone quote "My hypocrisy only goes so far" but also "It appears my hypocrisy knows no bounds" We, too, haven't figured that out yet ourselves www.wusf.org/education/20...

Who *hasn't* had the urge (wait, urges, 3 times) to get naked in a Banana Republic or Dillards (2x) dressing room? We support FREEDOM here at New College of Florida, speech & sometimes genitals Frederick Joseph Piccolo Jr is a true Banyan, exposed roots & all www.mysuncoast.com/2025/04/16/n...

Want to know more about us? www.chronicle.com/article/the-...

We told you we wanted more men at the school. Chris Rufo told you we wanted to "rebalance the ratio of students". What made you think we wanted to prioritize or value women in any way? www.heraldtribune.com/story/opinio...

We're torn, because on the one hand, we want in on this! On the other, we really like how having international students boosts our sports, we mean enrollment, numbers

Take it from us, you want to be real subtle when thinning out a book herd. Like "just rent a dumpster and publicly throw them all in there" subtle. www.heraldtribune.com/story/opinio...

Wait, we can target students just for *complaining* about someone or something now? Oh, it IS ON, New College students. What we mean is, we plan to have a fully safe and welcoming environment for all students. Yep, that's it.

We're excited that we continue to make national news! theonion.com/russell-bran...

Nothing to see here, folks. It's definitely, absolutely, truly just "event logistics" at the secured venue We still plan to host Russell Brand at New College of Florida because he is an absolutely preeminent mind. Richard Corcoran wants to smoke a cigar with him, too. www.wusf.org/education/20...

Nope. Never. All funding lining President Richard Corcoran's pockets are 100% above-board and totally appropriately gained and we are completely transparent about it all

Will Russell Brand still speak at New College of Florida? We don't know! We invited the guy, with his already-years-old allegations, to an academic symposium in the first place, so our judgment's not exactly top-tier at the moment. www.mysuncoast.com/2025/04/04/w...

If you can't be mission-aligned with helping Richard Corcoran and Friends line their pock..we mean, Make New College Great Again, then don't let the palm trees hit you on your way out or whatever

We're New College of Florida. Of *course* we have back-room deals, shady self-serving strategies, and President Richard Corcoran who is in Governor Ron DeSantis' pocket. And we don't ever have to tell you, the public, any thing about it at all. www.yourobserver.com/news/2025/ap...
